Do not generalize people not knowing how to speak tagalog in Mindanao and Visaya! That is an understatement! I suggest- educate yourself so you don’t sound stupid!!!
Napaka straight forward mag tanong ng mga Foreigners. Hahah ganyan dn sakin mga tanong.
Kinabahan lang yung tao eh. Atsaka hindi lang siguro niya masyado na express ng mabuti yung sinabi niya about people living in Visayas or Mindanao. Kayo naman.. Hahaha…
You did a great job! I'm encouraged to try
Sana magkaron ako ng ganyang kapangyarihan pagdating sa interview !
You've putted great experience, evenly it's your first time, either you was shy but it was great.
nice sir taga quezon ka rin pala, pwede malaman kung magkano ang rate mo now with your current client?
Hiii I'm from Quezon too!
Hays ang galing! Nakakainggit naman yung confidence when you speak. You nailed it bro!
Sorry bro but most of the mindanaons can speak tagalog, it's just our diction or accent make us looked like we can't pronounce it .
And about visayaz and Mindanao that can speak fluently in English , most of it but not all can speak fluently. By the way congratulations to your interview and your new job as well .
correction we do know how to speak Filipino/Tagalog po hahaha
I can’t with your face haajjajajajajja I
Jajajjaja
That's a no no. I am from Mindanao I can speak and understand tagalog very well. I am a filipino myself and I don't agree with what you have said on this interview. It seems that you are trying to discriminate us living in Visayas and Mindanao. We can also speak English better than you do. Lol
People in Mindanao can speak and understand Tagalog very well. Cebuano here
I did read some comments here and most of them are basically about him being unaware that people from the Visayas and Mindanao DO speak Filipino as I say. To be fair with him I think he haven't been to those places before that's why that is his work of thoughts, but to make it positive, yes we people from the Visayas and Mindanao region know how to speak Filipino obviously as it is being taught in the school and of course because of the media and the fact that it is our national language, so we should know about it. Nevertheless it was a nice video and hopefully you are already working with that client as of writing.
Filipino nga siya..
Where did you apply
Kuya natanggap ka? Congrats!!
Its not i think. It should be " i believe" thanks
hey @Janscena Im just watching ur video but i just want to say and to clarify… don't judge a book by its cover! I travel in luzon, visayas & mindanao. But mostly people in visayas and mindanao can really easy to UNDERSTAND the TAGALOG we can also SPEAK WELL TAGALOG! we can really understand bisaya or cebuano, ilonggo, ENGLISH and specially TAGALOG PO! but diff accent hehee..
this video was good but you lost me when you started talking about languages. crazy you should educate yourself more if you can
Thabk you for the vid. Very helpful insights. ♥️
I am from mindanao and the reason why people from mindanao speak English fluently is because Mindanao consists of different dialects and the sounds in their language that are not present in Tagalog language. That's the edge of the Mindanaons.
Galing mag-english, wala halos buffer hahaha! Very minimal ang fillers.. good job!
sorry dili nako makita ang offensive part kaayu sa iyang giingon kay tinood man na dili nato gamit kaayu amg Tagalog mostly sa mga rural area's na jd pero can converse well sa English language.
